So yeah. Food. Let's taco 'bout it.

A lot of "Random Thoughts. What Are You Thinking" thread on this forum is about food and I thought it would be nice to have a place to talk about food that wouldn't get buried in the near-30,000 page thread about anything and everything.

I just invented a forbidden culinary Frankenstein's monster which was the inspiration for this thread. This time, I've invented Ger-xican Taco Salad.

I had some Tostitos Bite Size left in a bag, but was out of salsa and had to come up with something. I knew I had some frozen chimichangas in the freezer and thought I could tear those apart and use their insides as a kind of dip.

Then, the madness began. I nuked 2 chimichangas and cut them up into bite-sized pieces in a bowl. Then I crushed up the Tostitos and poured them on top. This is too dry. I'll add a smidge of buffalo sauce and swirl some Sriracha to spice it up. Oh lort-jeepus, I have a unopened jar of sauerkraut in my fridge. That will give it the veggie-effect that is keeping this from becoming a full on taco salad.

It was madness and it was delicious. It had that briny spicy mouth-water'y goodness I love. Was it healthy? Hell to the no. Did I eat it all up with reckless abandon? I certainly did.

What you'll need:

A long while back, I also invented the Mexican Eggroll. Take one chimichanga (beef/pork/chicken/dinosaur; your choice) and drizzle Kikkoman soy sauce over it. Voila! This fancy recipe can be modified using a burrito instead of a chimichanga, but your mileage may vary.

The scope of the food megathread is very much not recipes, by the way. Favorite food. Worst food story. Food pictures. Food memes. I don't know. Food cosplay. Your move.

related to the above, you should see some of the twitter wars the Wendy's account has gotten into with McDonalds, Chic-fil-A, and Hooters over the years. Some quality trolling at times.


@Aeonova- that monstrosity you posted also looks like some sicko 1950s Melting Pot advertisement in a post-WW2 America. Good lord how many cultures can you fit in one bowl?

I tried recently making a steak rub based on espresso grinds. A little bit of salt, pepper, paprika, brown sugar, and Vietnamese robusta espresso. Grilled to medium-rare. Surprisingly really good!

I don't know... The guy discovered soy sauce and mixed it with meat. What's so special about it?

What's buffalo sauce? Does it have any actual buffalo in it?

@Freehugs: The Wendys fan-art rabbit hole takes you places. Sometimes I think "Man, what could I have accomplished if I had spent 18 years doing something else as hard as I did FFXI" and then I look at the "anime girl eating food google image results" rabbit hole and realize I could have ended up worse.

@Leviathan.Andret: That's why I underlined fancy.

@Bahamut.Unagihito: Ya always gotta be careful what you put in your mouth:

Put some of these into your food. I can assure you that fish juice is the only juice that worth adding to anything.

Except the sweet stuff. You want cow juice for them.

Half a table spoon. You would never know. And I will even add in sweet coconut milk into your curry for good effect.

Or maybe Fermented Cow Juice Special!

You have to include 10-year-old tendies with that sauce. People ain't going to buy them without a complete set.

Nothing beats the original FFXIAH sandwich.
